Velocity heterogeneity is often present in wetland systems and results in some influent water remaining in the wetland for less than the expected residence time. This phenomenon, known as short-circuiting, alters the ...

Phytoplankton are small, unicellular organisms, which form the base of the marine food web and are cumulatively responsible for almost half the global production of oxygen. While phytoplankton live in an environment ...

Airlines typically construct schedule plans based on the assumption that every flight leg departs and arrives as planned. Because this optimistic scenario rarely occurs, these plans are frequently disrupted and airlines ...

In order to examine the importance of sediment resuspension on the sediment bed-to-water column transport of hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) in the lower Hudson Estuary, the following areas of research were pursued: ...

In order to determine the hazards posed by hydrophobic organic compounds (HOCs) in sediment beds, the following areas of research were explored: (1) the use of polyethylene (PE) sheets as passive sampling devices in ...
